leave a comment »

Your percussion exam will be on Tuesday, April 27th. You will be asked to perform six exercises as part of the exam. They are:

  • Stroke Quality Warm-up, m.m. 65
  • Single Stroke Roll, silver level
  • Single Stroke Four, silver level
  • Single Paradiddle, bronze level
  • Flam, bronze level
  • Flam Tap, bronze level

The Vic Firth website has a great resource page for these rudiments. If you want to hear recordings of the rudiments, practice with them at different speeds, or see videos of them being performed, you can do it all at the Vic Firth education site.
